Labour is targeting the core remaining Conservative vote with announcements on defence and immigration as Sir Keir Starmer looks to press home his party’s advantage in the polls.
Today the Labour leader will unveil a “nuclear deterrent triple lock” as well as a commitment to increase defence spending to 2.5 per cent of GDP. He will pitch Labour as the “party of national security” as part of a meeting with forces veterans and party candidates in the North West of England. It comes following a series of announcements from the party on pledging to reduce immigration and safeguard jobs for British workers.
Shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper said the party wants to see “significant changes” and is clear that net migration “must come down”. But she stopped short of setting a target, saying the Conservatives have failed when they have done so and arguing that “variations” each year – such as the war in Ukraine – must also be considered. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer’s migration plan will include passing laws to ban law-breaking employers from hiring foreign workers and to train more Britons.
